BIG BREAKFAST PLUS

We offer a free cooked breakfast for anyone who needs it. We welcome people who are homeless and those at risk of homelessness, everyone is welcome, and you do not need a referral.We give our guests the chance to meet and socialise in a warm and friendly place. We also signpost our guests to local support services including housing, welfare, and addiction support.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Financial issues to consider:

This Charity has changed registration and some of the financial and donation history pertains to the previous entity
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
